So some GREAT news on Carol-Ann! She has had the breathing tube and chest tubes taken out, she has sat up in a chair, she has gained color in her face and is talking more and more. They are keeping her sedated though which is probably good - I wouldn't want her to feel the pain. The kids still are not allowed to see her yet and she is still in the ICU and will be there for atleast another week if not more. But she is doing wonderfully! So thank you for all the prayers - but please continue to pray and pray for her and her kids. :)) I love y'all Parker family.
Well next weekend the 22nd is homecoming at Pasco High, Ryans school, and we are going to go but I could get a new dress this time so I have wonderful friends that are lending me dresses to try on and wear - its a toss up between two but I think I am going to go with the blue one. :)) So in the morning when my madre wakes up we are going to walk to the bank and transfer the money I need to go do what I need to do tomorrow, go to publix and buy some blonde hair die so I can redo my under roots and get the blue out and then give myself blonde highlights before getting a hair cut. Then after the bank and publix we will walk back home and then hopefully by that time Ryan and his mom will be here and then we are going out to get Ryans homecoming stuff :)) and then his mom is bring us back to my house were Ill do my hair and Ryan and I will work on projects and or watch tv and then after my hair is done we are going to walk to walmart where the nail salon is that Im getting my manicure and pedicure done (Im getting Ryan one too!! ((: hehe) and then when we are done there we will probably go get some subway to eat and then go get my hair trimmed and then back to the house to spend the rest of the day together probably watching tv :)) can't wait its going to be an interesting day!! Im going to be taking a lot of pictures!! Trying to figure out why my camera won't charge but I have Bryants camera charing my battery so Ill just change it out in the morning.

Fight Hard Pray Harder
Some new news about Carol-Ann. The breathing tube and chest tubes are out! Which is great, however she still can not talk. But at least she can rest more comfortable now. Pray is an amazing thing! I know I have asked y'all to pray for Carol-Ann but add three more people to this prayer list please. Mac and Brett her two young children that do not understand why they can not see their mom. They are taking it harder and harder every day and they need prayers too. But Jack - husband and dad needs prayer as well. He is fighting two fronts at once. He has two children he needs to get to and from school and he's there with Carol-Ann everyday. Please pray for him as well. Please keep all the Parkers in your prayers please.
Dear God,
You've heard our cries. You know the pain in our hearts right now. Lord I pray you be with Mac and Brett they are young and they do not understand what is happening. They need your comfort Lord. Please bring their mom to a speedy recovery so she can return to them. Be with their dad and husband Jack as well. He is trying to do it all right now and he needs your safety and comfort as well Lord. There is only so much one person can take until the break. Please be with him and ease him. Allow Carol-Ann a comfortable peace and rest. The more rest she gets the faster she can get to a speedy recovery. Lord I love this family to death please be with them and help them through this time of heartache. Thank you Lord, your will be done.
In Christ Name. Amen
Thank you everyone for the prayers!

Prayer!!! Please.
Carol-Ann Parker, the mother of two Mckenzie and Brett and a wife; dear friends of mine and the kids I babysat for for years, was in the car cash Sunday on I-26 in South Carolina that sent 5 people to the hospital, flown or drove. One car in the west bound lane was changing lanes when it hit another car that swerved over into the east bound lane and hit two cars head-on (one of which was Carol-Ann) and then swerved back to the west bound lane where it hit another car. Her husband was flown to the crash site and saw her right after the collision, her two children thankfully did not see her like that but they did go to the hospital Sunday and were there until today when their dad took them back to school in West Columbia. She was in very critical condition when she arrived at Greenville Memorial Hospital. They did immediate surgery and they were able to stop the bleeding and get her stable. The CT scans showed there were no head injuries. She has a breathing tube and can not talk so she is spelling words in peoples hands, early Monday morning she spelled HOME in a loved ones hand so she has a goal to come home to Columbia. It also appears that her right hand and right foot may be broke. She's been running real high fevers, they have been keeping cool rags and running fans on her non-stop. This morning they went in and did a surgery to make sure all issues were addressed, they were and they closed her back up. Her family thought she was recovering great before the doctor came out and told them that her injuries are just that bad and she is still not out of the woods yet meaning anything could happen at anytime. They were also informed that the pancreas has suffered some damage which is making the doctors put in a feeding tube for 4 to 6 weeks, also because of the surgery today they have the ventilator on as well, they are planning to turn it off some time tomorrow, if it doesn't come off its no big deal. She is going to be in the ICU for 2 weeks if not more. It is unsure when she will be returning to Columbia but she has a long recovery and she is fighting for her life. I also found out that a 17 year old teenage girl lost her life this morning after fighting for her life after the crash. Please keep Carol-Ann and the Parker family in your prayers and also the 17 year old girl's family as well. Carol-Ann and her family are very dear friends of mine and mean a lot to me. I love them to death. Thank You All.
Dear God,
You know what happen early Sunday morning. Lord I pray that you give the doctors the knowledge the need to properly treat Carol-Ann. I pray you give Carol-Ann the strength she needs to pull through this. She has two young children that love her and want her to come home to them Lord. Give her family the peace they need and the strength they need to help her pull through this. I know its in Your hands now Lord and its up to You. Keep her safe. We all love her dearly.
Thank You Lord.
Carol-Ann your a fighter and a trooper and I KNOW you will pull out of this and be home with your children soon! I love you guys a bunch! ##AlwaysInMyHeart

This time its Economics :)
Hey everyone, as many of my regulars know I have been using my blog for certain assignments here lately for my online school and its mainly been government but now I have an Economics one I have to do so I hope you like the change up some. :) heres the "Prompt" type thing and my answer or assignment part is below. You have chosen an environmental issue to research for your Module Six Project. For this honors assignment, explore another issue that your community is facing. Consider a challenge that has resulted in externalities affecting you and your local area. Perhaps your community has many people without work or a low high school graduation rate. Choose an issue that you feel strongly about, and consider how the issue relates to poverty.Make sure that you address these questions in your awareness presentation:
- What is the issue?
- What externalities does the issue raise?
- How is the issue connected to poverty?
- What helpful action can your viewers take?
My Part: Population
In Florida we have many areas that show off the beauty of this state. With more and more people moving to Florida, however, many of these beautiful places are being destroyed and disturbed, animals becoming endangered while others are over populating these areas. We need our officials to step up and figure out a way to Preserve our natural land heritage and the animals in it. If Florida officials don't find a way to decrease the increasing of population then some externalities we could have would vary from endangered animals going extinct, our beautiful lands cut down or polluted taking away from the beauty and making it become nothing, overcrowding of people leading to decrease of jobs, etc. This issue could connect to poverty because if population continues to increase and increase in the state of Florida then it is going to become hard to find a job and then people will get behind in payments and have no money for food to feed their children. They will lose their house, their car, maybe even their children because they have no job to provide for themselves and their families. A good way for people to help I suppose would be to address the problem to the county or state government. Voice their opinions and state why this is such a big deal like I have above. We could get police officers to check more often to see if people have their green cards or not and to tighten portal of coast guard. It may sound mean to see them back to where ever they came from but we need to resolve this issue.

Missing
I think its getting harder and harder everyday to go without seeing the one that means more then the world to me. 10 minutes without talking feels like 10 hours the 6 to 7 days with out seeing him feels like 6 to 7 years. :( and when I do see him for 9 hours one day a week it only feels like 5 minutes :( I just wish I was 22.7 miles closer to him then I could see him 5 school days and on weekends, I could talk to him more and be in his arms and have a sweet kiss from him. He could hold me and let me cry instead of trying to comfort me over the phone. :( I don't think him or anyone else understands how badly I miss him and how I would give the right side of my body to be with him. I admit it, I for one am jealous of all the couples out there that get to see that special someone everyday. Those people should really cherish it instead of take it for granted because some people don't get to see that love one everyday. Not only me but think of all the military people that have their spouse or their mom or their dad or someone they love dearly. They for one have to worry everyday "Am I ever going to be able to hold them again" "Are they gonna come home alive" or "Am I going to get that knock on the door and get told the words I swore I would never hear" You NEVER know what could happen but those of you who have that loved one that means the world to you and you can see them everyday, let them know you love them and hold them and hug them, because if you take them for granted sooner or later they are going to be gone. So every time I see Ryan I CHERISH that and until the day I can be with him 24/7 by his side I will hold my head high and know everything will be okay. To all you military families, I know you pain of wondering those questions, yea I miss Ryan every second of everyday but my Uncle was just re-deployed overseas and I wonder everyday - "Will I get to see him again" "Am I going to get that horrid email or phone call" but I will trust in God to keep my Uncle safe.
Dear God,
Thank you for another day Oh Lord. You are a God of many wonders and I praise You, Right now Lord I want to pray for all the men and women overseas fighting in the war. I pray that you keep them in Your hands and keep them safe under Your wing. Not only them but keep us families that have that loved one fighting in this deadly war. Give us the courage and the hope to keep going and know all is well in your eyes and everything will be taken care of. Also Lord give comfort to those families that have already lost love ones, let them know You are here to provide support and care and comfort to them. Thank you Lord Jesus for everything you have done.
In Your Name I pray, Amen
Well Im off to work on some school and other stuff while Ryan is SAT testing.
